How beautiful are your sandaled feet, princess!E,i

The curves of your thighs are like jewelry,

the handiwork of a master.

2 Your navel is a rounded bowl;

it never lacks mixed wine.

Your belly is a mound of wheat

surrounded by lilies.

3 Your breasts are like two fawns,

twins of a gazelle.j

4 Your neck is like a tower of ivory,k

your eyes like pools in Heshbon

by Bath-rabbim’s gate.

Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon

looking toward Damascus.

5 Your head crowns youF like Mount Carmel,

the hair of your head like purple cloth—

a king could be held captivel in your tresses.

6 How beautiful you are and how pleasant,m

my love, with such delights!

7 Your stature is like a palm tree;

your breasts are clusters of fruit.

8 I said, “I will climb the palm tree

and take hold of its fruit.”n

May your breasts be like clusters of grapes,

and the fragrance of your breath like apricots.o

9 Your mouthG is like fine winep—

Woman

flowing smoothly for my love,

gliding past my lips and teeth!H

10 I am my love’s,

and his desireq is for me.r

11 Come, my love,

let’s go to the field;

let’s spend the night among the henna blossoms.I

12 Let’s go early to the vineyards;

let’s see if the vine has budded,

if the blossom has opened,

if the pomegranates are in bloom.s

There I will give you my caresses.

13 The mandrakest give off a fragrance,

and at our doors is every delicacy,

both new and old.

I have treasured them up for you, my love.
